Sir Ben Kingsley has revealed that he’ll be returning to the Marvel franchise but the star, who played The Mandarin in Iron Man 3, is keeping all the details under wraps.
“It’s a secret Marvel project. I’m not allowed to say any more, you’re going to have to wait and see,” he said to the Belfast Telegraph.
Kingsley is currently starring in Ender’s Game in Gavin Hood’s adaption of Orson Scott Card’s sci-fi book of the same name.

The actor plays a military leader alongside Harrison Ford, and said that he enjoying reuniting with the Marvel team.
“I was with many members of the crew that were involved in Iron Man 3. It was lovely to see them again. It was great to be with this wonderful family,” he said.
“I think they have enormous taste as creative artists. There’s nothing lazy or gratuitous about their work. They are at the top of their game, and they’re great company to keep.”
Will we see Kingsley as the Iron Man “villain” or something new, who knows? But we’re very excited to hear that he’s still involved.
